Product Overview
The Modaflame Work Hi-Vis Multi-Norm Contrast FR Jacket is an advanced piece of protective equipment, engineered specifically for professionals operating in high-risk environments. This medium-weight jacket integrates multi-norm safety standards with high-visibility features to ensure the wearer remains protected and seen. By utilising a sophisticated blend of modacrylic, cotton, and carbon fibre, it offers a robust barrier against heat, flame, and static, while specifically fulfilling the rigorous demands of Arc Flash protection. The contrast design in Yellow and Navy provides a functional yet professional appearance suitable for complex industrial settings.
Key Features
- Advanced visibility is achieved through high-contrast two-tone fabric and strategic reflective strips, ensuring you remain clearly visible to colleagues and vehicle operators in low-light conditions.
- The multi-norm fabric composition provides inherent flame resistance, which is essential for working in environments where heat and fire hazards are a constant risk.
- Arc Flash protection is a central design element, meeting stringent safety requirements to help shield the wearer from the thermal effects of an electric arc.
- Antistatic properties are provided by the inclusion of carbon fibre, reducing the risk of electrostatic discharge in sensitive or volatile atmospheres.
Design & Performance
The performance of this jacket is rooted in its material science. The shell is constructed from a medium-weight fabric comprising 60% Modacrylic, 39% Cotton, and 1% Carbon Fibre. Modacrylic is inherently flame-resistant, meaning the protective qualities are built into the fibre itself and will not wash out over time. The addition of cotton ensures the garment remains breathable and comfortable for extended wear throughout the working day, while the carbon fibre provides vital permanent anti-static protection.
The design features a practical contrast colourway, with navy sections positioned in areas most prone to soiling to maintain a cleaner appearance for longer. The construction is focused on durability, ensuring the jacket can withstand the physical rigours of industrial work without compromising its protective integrity.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To ensure your team presents a cohesive and professional image, this jacket is suitable for both print and embroidery. For a formal and enduring finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos and individual staff names. This method provides a textured, high-quality appearance that complements the technical nature of the garment.
If you require larger, more prominent branding, our printing services offer a bold and clear finish. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford. Since 1976, we have been perfecting the art of workwear branding, ensuring that your corporate identity is applied with the same precision that went into the manufacturing of the jacket itself.
Use Cases
This jacket is specifically designed for workers in the utilities, petrochemical, and electrical engineering sectors. It is an essential garment for anyone required to work in zones where Arc Flash hazards are present or where multi-hazard protection (flame, heat, and static) is a mandatory safety requirement. It is equally at home on construction sites and industrial facilities where high visibility is paramount.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear beneath the jacket. As this is a protective outer layer, ensuring a fit that allows for a full range of movement without being overly loose is critical for both safety and comfort. We recommend layering this with other flame-resistant garments to ensure a complete protective system across your entire outfit.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of flame-resistant and high-visibility clothing is vital for ensuring continued safety performance. Following the correct care procedures prevents the degradation of the technical fibres and ensures the reflective elements remain effective.
We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 60°C using a mild process. Exceeding this temperature can damage the synthetic fibres and reduce the lifespan of the garment. It is important to avoid bleach entirely, as these chemicals can strip away the protective qualities of the fabric and fade the high-visibility dyes.
For drying, use a low-heat tumble dry setting. High heat during the drying process can cause shrinkage and affect the fit of the jacket. When ironing, do not exceed a temperature of 150°C to avoid scorching the material. Finally, do not dry clean this garment, as the solvents used in that process can interfere with the inherent flame-resistant properties of the modacrylic blend.
